  • Losing sight of the threat

    Open Access•Cole Heffren, Lorna Ferguson et al.•ARTICLE•Policing & Society•2026

    Purpose Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping society, presenting both opportunities and challenges for law enforcement. Police organisations are cautiously adopting these technologies to improve operational efficiency. However, significant risks also emerge as criminals exploit AI for harmful activities. Threats such as deepfakes, advanced phishing, and AI-driven malware endanger communities. Understanding how police leaders evaluate…

  • “Cops Need Doxxed”

    Open Access•Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson et al.•ARTICLE•Crime & Delinquency•2025

    The present study explores the phenomenon of doxxing and, in particular, the use of doxxing as a form of harassment against police officers. This work relies on an analysis of in-depth interviews with 65 ( n = 65) police officers from across Canada, each of whom has had experiences of policing politically contested events. Drawing on our data, we outline specific examples of the doxxing of police officers, before exploring the political and other…

  • All These Crazies

    Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson•ARTICLE•Deviant Behavior•2025•Referencias: 35

    Drawing on a dataset comprised of 67 interviews with police personnel across Canada, as well as documents, videos and social media content, this paper examines five different types of "harms" perpetrated against police officers by individuals and groups espousing right-wing anti-authoritarian beliefs. The harms identified are: 1. actions intended to overwhelm and drain police, 2. cop-baiting, 3. doxing, 4. legal and pseudo-legal harassment and 5.…

  • “It’s all about covering your . . .”

    Open Access•Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson et al.•ARTICLE•Criminology & Criminal Justice•2024

    Policing faces increased accountability measures, influencing officers to engage in “covering your ass” and over-documentation. In this qualitative study of police officers across three Canadian provinces, we unpack the “covering your ass” mentality by exploring the paperwork burden as an unintended consequence of movements toward greater policing accountability. We find that covering your ass leads officers to complete paperwork to protect thems…

  • “You Don’t Need 55 Forms That Say the Same Thing”

    Open Access•Laura Huey, Rosemary Ricciardelli et al.•ARTICLE•Crime & Delinquency•2024

    Central to the police role and function are the inter- and extra-institutional demands for “knowledge” on crime and frontline policing. However, this subject has failed to generate the required empirical attention. The current study thus draws on Ericson and Haggerty’s conceptualization of police as “knowledge workers” to reveal the extent to which knowledge production for other institutions remains salient and, as a latent function, burdens poli…

  • When you own the time, it’s seamless, but when you don’t, it’s horrific’

    Laura Huey, Judith P Andersen et al.•ARTICLE•Policing & Society•2024•Referencias: 3

    On 24 May 2022, a gunman entered an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas and fatally shot 19 victims. During the incident, local police were present at the site but did not enter the building to confront the gunman. It was subsequently reported that an Incident Commander mischaracterised the situation as a 'barricaded subject' rather than as an 'active shooter', and officers were ordered to stay out of the scene and to keep student families and bys…

  • No one wants to end up on YouTube’

    Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson•ARTICLE•Policing & Society•2024•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 8

    Citizen recordings of police-public encounters are increasingly surfacing on social media, especially those in which individuals intentionally create confrontational situations to provoke a desired response from police officers. The latter is a form of, what we term, cop-baiting, driven mainly by the ubiquitous sousveillance of police by citizens. Although the literature has explored how media can impact public perceptions of police and police le…

  • “I’ve Seen More Dead People than I thought I Would”

    Open Access•Laura Huey, Mark Norman et al.•ARTICLE•Criminal Justice and Behavior•2023

    Civilian administrative assistants who work for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, known as Detachment Services Assistants (DSAs), are frequently exposed to materials and/or experiences that are potentially psychologically traumatic. Drawing from 49 semi-structured interviews with DSAs, we analyze how these civilian personnel experience exposure to potentially psychologically traumatic events, most notably, vicarious trauma. Specifically, we over…

  • Misunderstandings, mischaracterizations, and malicious accusations

    Open Access•Bryce Jenkins, Tori Semple et al.•ARTICLE•The Police Journal Theory…•2022

    To develop a more informed understanding of why tactical officers are used in Canada, we interviewed patrol and tactical officers from three Canadian police services (Jenkins et al., 2020). Interviewees indicated that tactical officers tend to be used on calls that go beyond the capabilities of patrol officers, including high-risk calls and calls unfolding in special environments, and that their use results in reduced threat to police and public …

  • Going Missing' as a Maladaptive Coping Behavior for Adults Experiencing Strain

    Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson•ARTICLE•Deviant Behavior•2022•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 30

    This study applied the Threat Appraisal and Coping Theory to explore the mechanisms influencing a person to go missing. We examined the negative emotions and stressors – proximate stressors/stressful events, underlying life stressors, emotional states, and other dysfunctional behaviors – of adults who were reported as missing from 2014–2018. Our results indicate that missing persons experience significant underlying life stressors, stressful situ…

  • An exploration of the use of tactical officers in three Canadian police services

    Open Access•Bryce Jenkins, Tori Semple et al.•ARTICLE•The Police Journal Theory…•2021

    In order to better understand the use of tactical police resources in Canada we interviewed patrol and tactical officers ( N = 28) from three Canadian police services. A thematic analysis indicated that tactical officers are primarily responding to calls beyond the capabilities of patrol to resolve optimally which included high-risk calls as denoted by the presence of risk-factors and calls unfolding in special environments. Further, tactical off…

  • The irrationalities of rationality in police data processes

    Laura Huey, Lorna Ferguson et al.•ARTICLE•Policing & Society•2021•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 5

    This paper explores how police bureaucracies, in their pursuit of greater accountability and management efficiencies, create what are intended to be rational data collection and use processes. However, these processes often produce unintended consequences: namely, behaviours, practices, and policies that confound an organisation’s goals. Drawing on Ritzer’s McDonaldization thesis and qualitative data from two Canadian police organisations, we arg…

  • Tidying up a few misconceptions around evidence-based policing

    Jacek Koziarski, Laura Huey•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021•Referencias: 15

    In this piece we reply to a commentary from Staller and Koerner on our work entitled, #Defund or #Re-Fund? Re-Examining Bayley’s Blueprint for Police Reform. In short, we agree on the necessity of reflexivity within policing research and the area of evidence-based policing more specifically, but also see this reply as an opportunity to clarify some misconceptions around evidence-based policing and what it means to be “evidence-based.” More specif…

  • Defund or #Re-Fund? Re-examining Bayley’s blueprint for police reform

    Jacek Koziarski, Laura Huey•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 50

    In light of the defund the police movement, it is imperative we consider what police reform could and potentially should look like. Some, for example, have called for a reduced police footprint in marginalised communities through reallocating police funding towards preventative services for a myriad of social issues. However, drawing on David Bayley’s Police for the Future, we show that a dilemma arises with respect to police involvement in these…

  • ‘If it’s not worth doing half-assed, then it’s not worth doing at all’

    Hina Kalyal, Laura Huey et al.•ARTICLE•Police Practice and Research•2020

    Strategy implementation is the most challenging aspect of strategic management. In the case of police organizations, failure to effectively carry out a strategy results in loss of organizational resources and employee commitment. The present study is an attempt to explore the reasons behind failure of new strategies by drawing upon qualitative survey responses from 353 police officers and civilian employees from seven agencies across Canada. The …

  • A Canadian replication of Telep and Lum’s (2014) examination of police officers’ receptivity to empirical research

    Brittany Blaskovits, Craig Bennell et al.•ARTICLE•Policing & Society•2018•Referencias: 1

    Research conducted in the United States (U.S.) suggests that many police professionals are unaware of, or resistant to, empirical research, and see little value in adopting evidence-based approaches for tackling policing issues. To determine whether similar views are held by Canadian police professionals, 598 police professionals (civilians and officers) from seven police services across Canada were surveyed. The survey was designed by Lum and Te…

  • To what extent do Canadian police professionals believe that their agencies are ‘Targeting, Testing, and Tracking’ new policing strategies and programs

    Laura Huey, Brittany Blaskovits et al.•ARTICLE•Police Practice and Research•2017

    Some researchers suggest that police professionals see little value in adopting evidence based approaches to tackle policing challenges. To examine this issue, 586 Canadian police professionals were surveyed. We explore responses to one particular question, which caused 353 respondents to reflect on whether they think their agencies enact evidence based policing (EBP) principles in daily operations; specifically, the principles of targeting, test…

  • There’s More Than One Right Path to The Destination”

    Laura Huey, Hillary Peladeau et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Criminal Justice…•2017

    Each year colleges and universities market criminology and criminal justice programs to potential applicants by suggesting these programs offer a uniquely tailored path for those seeking entry into a policing career. Despite such claims, little empirical research exists to suggest that degree content is a factor in influencing recruitment outcomes. In this paper, we present results from an ongoing, exploratory study into pre-recruitment education…

  • Policing “Domestic Disturbances” in Small Towns and Rural Communities

    Open Access•Laura Huey, Rosemary Ricciardelli•ARTICLE•Canadian Review of Sociology/Revue…•2017•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 7

    Drawing on Canadian police data on homicide involving domestic dispute calls from 1960 to the present ( n = 20), as well as on in‐depth interviews with police officers ( n = 33) working in rural and remote communities, the authors reexamine the argument that police attendance at domestic disturbance calls can pose a special threat to officer safety. Although some scholarship suggests that purported risks have been overstated, the authors argue th…

    The distributed nature of the Internet requires that security issues be addressed through collaborative efforts within and across various sets of public and private actors. Drawing on nodal governance theory, this article explores one aspect of the role that the general public can and does play in the field of cyber-security: civilian policing of the Internet. In particular, we examine the motives and actions of regular citizens, who use their co…

  • False security or greater social inclusion? Exploring perceptions of CCTV use in public and private spaces accessed by the homeless

    Open Access•Laura Huey•ARTICLE•British Journal of Sociology•2010•Citada por: 13•Referencias: 27

    It has been well documented that owing to the vulnerability inherent in their situation and status, the homeless experience high rates of harassment and criminal victimization. And yet, the question of whether CCTV surveillance of public and private spaces - so frequently viewed by the middle classes as a positive source of potential security - might also be viewed by the homeless in similar ways. Within the present paper, I address this issue by…

    In this article, we draw on interviews conducted with Canadian police investigators for a study of mass media representations of police work to better understand their unique perspectives on the nature of police-media relations. In contrast to the orthodox position of the policing literature that holds that police are the dominant partner in the police-media relationship, investigators interviewed felt that they had lost control over representati…

Drawing on nodal governance theory, this article explores one aspect of the role that the general public can and does play in the field of cyber-security: civilian policing of the Internet. In particular, we examine the motives and actions of regular citizens, who use their co…

    Nancy Fraser's propositions regarding the nature of ‘boundary’ work carried out by experts within organizations suggests that individuals who work within bureaucratic structures are so constrained by the institutional context that they become detached, depoliticizing arbitrators of politicized claims. The purpose of the research reported in this article is to examine the assertion that workers in boundary roles necessarily engage only in work tha…

    Public fascination with criminal detection has led to a plethora of images of investigational work in the media and to a radical reworking of public perceptions of the nature of the police investigator's role and of the occupation's dirty work elements. In this paper, we draw upon in-depth interviews with 31 Canadian police investigators to explore how they perceive the physically dirty elements of their job and their views related to the public …

    The goal of this article is to address three research questions that are important for understanding selfinjuring behaviors among homeless women: (1) Do homeless women self-injure? (2) If so, do the correlates of self-injuring behavior among homeless women in our self-injuring group differ in type from stressors experienced by homeless women who do not self-injure? (3) Do women who have engaged in self-injuring experience a greater number of sign…

As we document through an analysis of user posts, Reddit members shared information about the investigation, searched for information that would identify the perpetrators and, in some cases, drew…

  • To what extent do Canadian police professionals believe that their agencies are ‘Targeting, Testing, and Tracking’ new policing strategies and programs

    Laura Huey, Brittany Blaskovits et al.•ARTICLE•Police Practice and Research•2017

    Some researchers suggest that police professionals see little value in adopting evidence based approaches to tackle policing challenges. To examine this issue, 586 Canadian police professionals were surveyed. We explore responses to one particular question, which caused 353 respondents to reflect on whether they think their agencies enact evidence based policing (EBP) principles in daily operations; specifically, the principles of targeting, test…

    Each year colleges and universities market criminology and criminal justice programs to potential applicants by suggesting these programs offer a uniquely tailored path for those seeking entry into a policing career. Despite such claims, little empirical research exists to suggest that degree content is a factor in influencing recruitment outcomes. In this paper, we present results from an ongoing, exploratory study into pre-recruitment education…

  • Policing “Domestic Disturbances” in Small Towns and Rural Communities

    Drawing on Canadian police data on homicide involving domestic dispute calls from 1960 to the present ( n = 20), as well as on in‐depth interviews with police officers ( n = 33) working in rural and remote communities, the authors reexamine the argument that police attendance at domestic disturbance calls can pose a special threat to officer safety. Although some scholarship suggests that purported risks have been overstated, the authors argue th…
